Indicative of her pursuit to dissipate the conventional boundaries between the applied and fine arts that existed in pre-World War II Europe, the sculpture defies categorization. The artist referred to Dada Head as a self-portrait, but rather than communicating interest in a physical, naturalistic resemblance, it is a composite of elements of art and of the everyday that interested her. At the heart of the Zurich Dada movement, Taeuber-Arp was a dancer, designer, puppeteer, sculptor, painter and writer. Dada Head existed - and still exists - as an investigation into participation across boundaries rather than within them.","brand":"The Museum of Modern Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42664664891428,"sku":"9781633450684","price":29.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9781633450684.jpg?v=1773239105","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/sophie-taeuber-arp-dada-head","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
